Divide each flock's total pieces of food by 300, the total number of pieces of food eaten.

Multiply the food percentage for each flock by the total number of birds (30).



Answer :

Let's go through the solution step-by-step, filling in the missing values.

1. Determine the Food Percentage for Each Flock:

- Flock X:
The food percentage is calculated by dividing the food eaten by Flock X by the total food eaten, and then multiplying by 100.
[tex]\[ \text{Food Percentage for Flock X} = \left( \frac{123}{300} \right) \times 100 = 41.0\% \][/tex]

- Flock Y:
Similarly, for Flock Y:
[tex]\[ \text{Food Percentage for Flock Y} = \left( \frac{99}{300} \right) \times 100 = 33.0\% \][/tex]

- Flock Z:
For Flock Z:
[tex]\[ \text{Food Percentage for Flock Z} = \left( \frac{78}{300} \right) \times 100 = 26.0\% \][/tex]

2. Calculate the Simulated Number of Birds for Each Flock (2nd Generation):

- Flock X:
The number of birds for Flock X is calculated by taking the food percentage for Flock X and multiplying it by the total number of birds (30).
[tex]\[ \text{Birds in Flock X} = \left( \frac{41.0}{100} \right) \times 30 = 12.3 \][/tex]

- Flock Y:
Similarly, for Flock Y:
[tex]\[ \text{Birds in Flock Y} = \left( \frac{33.0}{100} \right) \times 30 = 9.9 \][/tex]

- Flock Z:
For Flock Z:
[tex]\[ \text{Birds in Flock Z} = \left( \frac{26.0}{100} \right) \times 30 = 7.8 \][/tex]

Now let's fill in the table with these values:

[tex]\[ \begin{tabular}{|l|l|l|l|} \hline & \text{Flock X} & \text{Flock Y} & \text{Flock Z} \\ \hline \begin{tabular}{l} \text{Total Pieces of Food Eaten} \\ \text{(from previous page)} \end{tabular} & 123 & 99 & 78 \\ \hline \text{Food Percentage} & 41.0 \% & 33.0 \% & 26.0 \% \\ \hline \begin{tabular}{l} \text{Simulated Number of Birds} \\ \text{in Flock for 2nd Generation} \end{tabular} & 12.3 & 9.9 & 7.8 \\ \hline \end{tabular} \][/tex]
